This Datsun 510 checks all the right boxes. It has no rust, original paint in a 70s-tastic shade of yellow, it’s a wagon, and it’s a 4 speed. Word on the street is that it’s current owner is pretty amazing. I have it on good authority that he “World’s Most Interesting Man” once peed himself at the mere mention of this car’s owner.

The Aston Martin Featured in the film Skyfall sold for only $100,000. Other examples of DB5s have fetched well over a half-million dollars. The twist is, this particular car was a 1:3 scale replica of the real thing. That’s right, someone paid almost 100 geezers for a plastic replica of the real thing.
This picture doesn’t need a thousand words to get its point across. If if did say a thousand words, they would most likely be about the overall, long-term reliability of older Fiats. They would then likely delve into Consumer Reports and cost per mile averages. Perhaps gas mileage would also be addressed.
This parking lot, likely in Samara Oblast, is chock full of Ladas. Need That Car has a real soft spot for these little Russian clunkers. The Lada was also known as the Fiat 124, which sold in huge numbers in the ’80s.

I wasn’t sure how to title this post. I went with “Swedish Turbo Tractor Burnouts And Drifting”, but it could very well have been, “All The Gods In All Of The Hooniverse Are Welling Up With Pride” or, “Holy Meatballs! Swedish Fantasmo Tractor!”
Basically, the story is, a man in Sweden has adapted a 400 hp Volvo 240 Volvo motor into his tractor, and now he’s hooning the hell out of it. Click through for the video, which is the best thing you will watch today.
This Volkswagen owner has a very refined sense of style. The scooter must be the envy of all the other scooters.
Bravo!

There are thousands of reasons to take a road trip. There are thousands of roads to travel. From that pile of reasons and that pile of roads, I recently found a reason to travel 400 miles across Nevada on U.S. Route 50. Fittingly, I ventured out on this journey alone, given the route’s nickname: “The Loneliest Road in America.” So, with Folsom Prison Blues cranked up, I jumped into the deep end of Nevada. The following are some thoughts about the trip.
Snake Eyes French Fries is the name of this fantastic video by Jason Lee Parry and Gandja Monteiro. It is set to the song “Grim Reaper Blues” by Entrance. The subject is the model, but the setting shifts from a vintage motorcycle shop to a Pontiac Firebird and back.

In 1955, Citroen introduced the DS to the world. It was very advanced for its time with its aerodynamic styling by Italian Bertoni and French Lefèbvre, its hydropneumatic suspension, hydraulic power steering, and front disc brakes.
So what do you do with a 1964 model? Full restoration? Mild custom? Nope. The only choice is full hot rod. Click through for more pictures and a video. (Includes smokey burnout)

Ok, this is a boring topic, but we felt it definitely deserved a place in this series. If you have spent any considerable time working in the garage, shop, driveway, carport, or parking lot, you have probably cut some corners when it comes to safety. You may have even had a close call or two. Stop doing that. Here are some tips that will help to keep the doctor away.
